Aruba compatible JM535A Description
JM535A is an Aruba Networking part number for a 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver, listed in the Aruba accessory catalogue alongside the older J9150A and its replacement J9150D. Where J9150A and J9150D belong to the CX and ProCurve enterprise switch families, JM535A appears in Aruba ordering systems as a separate line item tied to the Aruba Networking (post-rebrand) product portfolio. The internal Aruba designation for this optical specification is EC-SFP-SR.
Optical parameters follow the 10GBASE-SR standard per IEEE 802.3ae: 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, PIN photodiode receiver, LC/UPC duplex connectors, multimode fiber. Reach is 300 m on OM3 and 400 m on OM4, with a minimum 6.1 dB optical budget. The transceiver supports data rates from 1.25 to 10.3125 Gbps, covering 10GbE, GbE, and STM-64 depending on port configuration. DDM diagnostics per SFF-8472 provide real-time monitoring of Tx/Rx optical power, laser bias current, temperature, and supply voltage. Operating range is 0 to 70 degrees C.
The JM535A SKU emerged during HPE's rebranding of the Aruba product line. Earlier Aruba 10G SR transceivers carried J-prefix part numbers (J9150A, J9150B, J9150C, J9150D), all of which referenced the same 10GBASE-SR specification across successive hardware revisions. The JM535A continues this pattern under the new Aruba Networking numbering scheme. ArubaOS-CX recognises the module through the "show interface transceiver" output, where it reports as a validated SFP+ optic. ArubaOS-Switch (legacy ProCurve firmware) also accepts the module without vendor warnings.
EdgeOptic's compatible JM535A is based on the 10G-SFP-300 platform. EEPROM is programmed with Aruba-recognized vendor identifiers so the module registers correctly across ArubaOS-CX and ArubaOS-Switch. Mechanical and electrical compliance follows SFF-8431 and SFF-8432. Aruba Networking EEPROM coding is confirmed on every unit before shipping. CE and RoHS certified.
Aruba CX 6200, 6300, 6400, 8320, 8325, 8360, and 8400 series switches all accept 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules in their SFP+ and SFP56 ports . Legacy 2930F, 2930M, 3810M, and 5400R models with SFP+ uplink modules are also compatible. The JM535A is the correct replacement part when the procurement record or Aruba BOM specifically references this SKU.
If a procurement system references JM535A and the target switch is a CX 6300 or CX 8360, the module functions identically to a J9150D in that slot. For volume pricing or platform coverage questions, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the JM535A the same transceiver as the J9150D?
Both are 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules with identical optical specifications. JM535A is the Aruba Networking catalogue number introduced after the HPE Aruba rebrand; J9150D is the legacy HPE Aruba part number. Either module works in CX-series and ProCurve SFP+ ports.
What does the EC-SFP-SR designation mean on the JM535A?
EC-SFP-SR is Aruba's internal product code for the 10GBASE-SR SFP+ optic specification. It appears in ArubaOS-CX transceiver tables and some Aruba datasheets. The JM535A is the orderable SKU that maps to EC-SFP-SR.
